Interview: Darwin Deez

We had a cross Atlantic email chat with 69’s Spring issue one to watch, Darwin Deez, about his forthcoming debut album,  bat-winged denim, and why we should ditch our shampoo.
How did you get started as a songwriter?

Going regularly to the open mic at the Sidewalk café had everything to do with it. I became [...]

Perennial 69 fave Pilot, you may recall, opened a new store on the High Street late last year. Well, looky here now because it’s only gone and got bigger and better. The Net @ Pilot store is shimmying over from Silver Street into a spanking new basement at the High Street location. The bespoke shopfit [...]

Julia’s Blog-From Muffin Top to Skinny Latte

Prelude
Like most women I’ve had my fair share of diets and gym memberships-nothing has ever really worked to the extent where I’ve been happy about it. It’s programmed into women I think, to link their happiness and self worth to how they look. And whilst I know in my head this is utter tosh, that the measure of a [...]

Win! Granny Made Beanie

Last year’s Shreddies advert with all those cute old women knitting cereal treats was one of our favourite ads. It’s quite possibly the reason why we also love granniesinc.co.uk.  The site gives you the opportunity to design your very own beanie and then a guaranteed Granny (I imagine the one that made mine is called [...]

    Win! Tactical Nuclear Penguin

    That got your attention eh? Often, when sitting having a beer, I do think ‘this would be a much more enjoyable experience if it had potency similar to that of vodka.’  Tada!  Enter Tactical Nuclear Penguin (great name), the world’s strongest beer. It’s 32% (eek) and described as a double cask matured uber-imperial stout. At [...]

    Win! Bargrooves Over Ice II

    Over Ice II continues in the same vein as its predecessor, which was the best-selling digital Bargrooves compilation to date, by focussing very much on the cooler end of the house music spectrum, epitomised by the first tracks on each of its two discs. CD1 sees the heavily lauded Reboot’s ‘Enjoy Music’ setting the tone, [...]

    Win! ATFC In The House 10

    Club-wise, London is the place that represents the benchmark that everyone else strives to duplicate. The city defines the word cosmopolitan, which is a huge part of its global appeal, and along with Ibiza represents the centre of the universe for clubbing and dance music. London is simply unique.  ATFC is a fitting choice to [...]

    Win! A Chance To See The Lady Boys Of Bangkok

    The Ladyboys of Bangkok, in theory, shouldn’t work as a show. Thai boys dressed as Thai girls wearing over the top costumes involving lots of feathers then dancing, to be honest sounds like a car crash – or a regular night out on Hurst Street.  It shouldn’t work, but it absolutely does.
